1. The Balcanization of the US is very likely coming.
No sarcasm smiley required.

The old Republic is dead, although the corpse lives on.

2. I'm afraid you're right
But it may be for the better. Just think our states will have solar and wind power, health care, jobs...

i am closer to a lot of red than i would like. but i live here because of it's blueness, not just politically, but culturally. it's like the united nations all around me. that's what i came here for.
especially this city.

9. New York, of course
Sure, there's some red'uns upstate, but plenty of blues too. Hey, we got Ithaca! And one of the best ports in the country. We might have to pave over the financial district though, and start over.
